- @JamesReeves is at IWA/Enforce Tac 2024 talking to the guys at Valtroabout their Italian modular Glock-type pistols. Valtro, an Italian firearm manufacturer, has introduced a line of pistols that appear to cater to those seeking alternatives to Glock - the PF9 model. This model, which Valtro promotes with the tagline "Built by Hand, to Perform in Yours," signifies a blend of traditional craftsmanship with modern technology. The original Valtro Firearms gained recognition for their semi-custom 1911 and the PM-5 shotgun, indicating a history of producing quality firearms.
The PF9 model from Valtro is designed to offer advanced customization to accommodate various shooters. Key features include an enhanced grip texture, an improved trigger for sure and accurate shooting, and a low barrel bore axis with a 19-degree grip angle for a natural point-of-aim. Unlike traditional Glock frames, the Valtro PF9 frame is available in both polymer and aluminum options, providing a unique selling point for those looking for a different feel or weight in their handgun. The aluminum competition trigger option aims to offer an optimal crisp trigger with a lighter pull and tactile audible reset.
Furthermore, the PF9 is designed with a rigid, embedded 42NiCrMo4 steel chassis in the frame to reduce flex and torque when firing, enhancing the shooting experience. The model also features polymer frames in various colors like black, green, tan, and grey, and aluminum frames in silver and black, offering aesthetic customization options for buyers.
All PF9 slides are optics-ready and come with steel sights, and the barrels are button-rifled, available in standard and threaded versions. The PF9 is a striker-fired, semi-automatic pistol chambered in 9mm, with a magazine capacity of 17+ rounds, indicating it's designed for both practical and competitive use.

Italian take on the Glock: "first things first: let's debrickify its looks"
GlockxGuccixPininfarina design, "she looks like a sexy lady, no?"
@@ZOROASTEDUsally i crap on glock clones dispite carrying a poverty state dagger😂😂. I would actually get this on cause yes she is sexy lady.
You forgot to do the chef's kiss.
And dump those "sights".
I cant think of a more notable collaboration between an italian and an austrian
Now we just need to mount some japanese glass on it, like a cmore
😂😂
😁😁
Aluminum frame looks dope
I’m in. Send them over
One step closer to an actual Gucci Glock
Does that mean it’s still a Glock?
@@scottmackey4182 you paint a zebra pink is it still a zebra?
@@zanenevada7327 if you paint it pink but you change the skin and the body is no more a zebra
I have one since ottobre 2023 and testina it. The frame is perfect, 1911 angle. Love it
Does it work with Glock factory slide?
@LonghornShootingSports Bro, he said that in the video.
In the meanwhile at Glock’s ‘development’ department.. 😴 💤
The Glock 51.
It is a 26 frame with a 21 slide chambered in 10x23 Hackafudd.
No whizbangs.
I think they might have seen this 15 years ago and it's teething issues.
Glock has a development team? Any Schmo can work for a living and be expected to produce, but it's a wise cookie that gets paid for doing next to nothing. Where can I sign up for Glock's development team?
Glocks are like iphones. Its the same shìt every year
Glock's patent, which they had for 40 years, made them complacent. When it finally expired in 2017, they were not ready to innovate because they never had to do that before. So instead of using common sense, they just threw everything at the wall to see what sticks. That's how we ended up with the Gen 5 and all the other weird stuff they came out with.
This is what a glock gen 6 should be. I hope the product works well and takes off. Very good idea here and the execution seems good too.
I’m in. Compatible with Glock stuff but fixes my complaints (Serialized FCU w/ grip modules, 1911 angle).
It’s called OZ9…. It exists already…
Let’s be real, people, if you don’t like the Glock grip angle, you do t like Glocks. There is a tone of alternatives out there with the 1911 grip angle.
Yeah except this is glock priced.
I see someone is doing the modular chassis/ frame setup but for a good platform.
😂 hilarious.
And all this time, I thought the "Italian Glock" is the Beretta APX.. But I want one of those aluminium ones!
I’m not a glock guy but this set up is very interesting,
Thank you !
Looks like the frame halves are held together with Allen screws 😂
@MauFuli I hope they come to the US.
Glock should have done this for the US service pistol trials.
Why not a basic question such as: does this use glock magazines or proprietary ones?
yes sir , 100%
This uses Glock magazines.
Well done Maurizio!
Thanks a lot !
GLOCKATALIANO! IMPURRRRFECTION!!!
Damn, I'm down. I'll take a couple.
Good look - hope to see in US someday 😮
Is it coming to the US? You stopped asking that important question. Good stuff tho. Carry on!
Mauricio's presentation was great.
The steel frame is quite interesting for chassis use too, making the connection to it much stiffer. Like on a Hera Triarii that has a bit of give on Glocks but is rock solid on an SP-01.
Italians do it better!! With style!! 🙌🏼🇮🇹💪🏼👍🏼❤️🇺🇸
I'm a Glock lover but I would probably buy this if available here in the USA.
I HAVE A FEELING THAT WILL TAKE A LOT OF SALES FROM GLOCK...I DONT MIND BUYING ONE BECAUSE I HAVE LOTS OF GLOCK MAGS ALREADY ;)
I wish James would've asked about the price of the steel chassis, the polymer frame, aluminum frame, and when they're coming to the states.
he said the cheapest 1 is 550 euros.
@@wnemethvargo284that’s for the entire gun one would think. I’d like to know what the frame alone will cost?
@wnemethvargo284 that's the entire gun. The next thing he said was about the threaded barrel version, which was like 50 dollars or so more. Chassis/ Frames don't have threaded barrels
@@wnemethvargo284 maybe at distributors..because in italy the cheaper is 780+vat€ ...so around 880usd!!!!
Good to see they did some research seeing if a pistol had ever been named a PF9 before.
You are slipping James. You didn't ask about the trigger or sights. Didn't even ask if they plan to bring them to the US.
We are dealing with an US distributor in these days , thank you for your interest
Isn’t this just the PSA SWCH? Which was another company that made these modular metal glock lowers and PSA bought them.
I actually already own a Valtro, lol. Their mag fed shotgun from back in the day. I might just grab one of these.
This need to drop in the US before the PSA drop their own version.
Dang I really dig these
Isn’t PSA doing something similar?
Yes, they are. It's the PSA Dagger SWCH, I believe.
@ashfield4313 which look suspiciously LFA AMPs
@@WN_Byers They all look suspiciously like a glock 19/17 gen 3 frame but in metal and using a serialized fcg
The facilities are close to eachother; I believe there to be a connection. It's just a hunch. As you were@@ashfield4313
Did any of the Daggers ditch the Glock grip angle? That is the biggest improvement I see here. He also didn't ask about the trigger and sights.
Reminds me of RIA Stk100... a metal framed Glock clone with 1911 angled grip
4:14 sounded a lot like how my tinder dates always end
Sweet!!! Now how do I import this?? 🤔
I like this, modularity is the future.
Bring one back for review non album frame please . Good boooooyyyy
Very excited about this 🇮🇹
James you're doing great work out there keep it up.
I would actually consider these. They look solid. Id just have to see on reliabilty
Although this is really cool for small frame glock enjoyers, its a little late to the party now that we have lone wolf frames that come in basically every slide and grip combination and with gen 4 mag releases.
And even later still now that sct and psa are releasing G43X frames which both have the gen 4 style mag release and work with the various 15 round G43X mags.
Taking a Glock and making it perfect 🤌
I'm on board. Let's get it.
Great coverage!!
So like what half the company's are doing here ..crazy new tech
Who else is making a modular/serialized FCU Glock?
the prices that Maurizio told is maybe at the distributors...because with italian Vat the cheaper is 990€!!!!!
What we really need is to just import Maurizio! Then we give him as much of the finest cappuccino and Sangiovese as he needs and he can make them here!
Those are bada$$!
We need reviews on these models James . Shill for it porfavor💯
Per favore
Looks like James is too busy shilling for a gun control supporting company like 5.11
Interesting design. I'd enjoy running one.
"Running one"
I want.
Yes please bring to the states
I want one but they don’t have them in America from what I have seen
want
Yep.
Would buy.
Now make one in steel with a Cheely cheese grater type grip texture.
I’m my opinion in the last decade handguns and their respective designers are in a complete state innovative stalemate.
Those are cool
Metal has been done. What's different between the stiffness and reliability issues of 2010?
hell yes
Its likenthe guy say the PSA saber pistols 2years ago and said ..we can do that also
Is this the same Valtro that made the PM5 shotgun?
Not exactly , that VALTRO went belly up at the beginning of this century , this is a new company with the same name and logo but with different people and projects
This is the kind of stuff Glock should be doing. More features, but what makes the gun reliable remains. All of these third parties innovating on the Glock design confirms how lazy Glock really is.
That's just like the G0 from defense distribution.
the question is who's the 1st person gonna be to get in a self defense shooting and when the police confiscate your pistol you hand them the insert only.
I demand my ffl get this Right now
Slap a zev slide on top and Zev will be shitting their pants if the price is right haha
Just take my money
take my money
I want one
Looks like a Timberwolf.
And are made too the shotguns??? Still made?
Looks like Beretta's nistan finish. Any relation?
I like the slide serrations, Pretty stylish. 😂
Don't we won't flexibly in the frame for recoil mitigation?
A Euro vs. Dollar, today is: $1.092...... 550 euro's = $600.57
1911 grip angle? What about Glock mags then...
Thinking too hard homie take a break.
Not helpful
It’s just taking the hump off the back strap. Mag well doesn’t change.
Thanks!
when are they coming to america?????
Im sold, where the hell do i buy one lol
Interesting....
The Glock Wars have begun.
Which part is serialized ... the polymer frame or the steel insert ?
The steel insert.
Another polymer 80 glock clone? Daring arent we
It seems like a Zev to me.
Are those prices for a complete pistol or just the frame and steel insert?
Complete pistol.
Complete
Glockolini
Glock goes further de-classified. That doesn't sound reasonable man! that prices of the new pieces should be converted to new glocks as they can perform well..
What's with James and the Italians?
HOLY SHEEP DIP!! I'm gonna have to keep an eye on these guys!! Very impressive!
it's not 60 % glass fibers
I can get LFA and a psa dagger for the price of one
I like very much
So it's a Lone Wolf clone?
had me at glock
Azz!
My opinion is Canik is the best value for the money Sfx. Mind blowing good whole case with accessories for money you pay nothing can beat Canik.
Hasn’t zev already been doing this for years now ?
operation gabagool
Enough with the 1911 grip angle already!! We have plenty of those. Give me all these “upgrades” with the Glock grip angle. That’s what I like about Glocks.
Wow, you get great interviews when the interviewer keeps their mouth shut for most of it.
Who knew?
This looks suspiciously like the Glock chassis that Defense Distributed put out for the Ghostgunner.
